The track's dynamic composition creates an irresistible urge to move, drawing you into a whirlwind of pulsating beats and electrifying synths. Just when you think you've reached maximum velocity, the B-section takes control, momentarily easing the throttle, while ethereal synths soar, delivering euphoric, anthem-like melodies.

"Drive Resonance" captures the essence of the big beat era, blending nostalgia and contemporary production techniques. It conjures up images of crowded dance floors, ecstatic ravers, and an infectious sense of freedom. Get ready to lose yourself in the propulsive rhythms, the magnetic bass, and the uplifting melodies that define this modern big beat masterpiece.

Whether you're seeking a soundtrack for a late-night drive or a dance party that defies gravity, "Drive Resonance" is a sonic force that demands attention. Strap in, feel the rush, and let the resonance of this track propel you into a euphoric state of sonic bliss.

DIXIE FRIED
Music by Overdrive

Dixie Fried is a sort of audio version of "Where's Wally?" The track has tons of references to the hippie/rock counterculture of the 1970s -- from the slang that gives the song its title, to the cover art reminiscent of Easy Rider; to the very structure of the song.

Reference lists are at the end of this text.

Synthetic vocals from Dreamtonics' Synthesizer V software with Eclipsed Sounds’ Solaria voice. Guitars from samples provided by Noiiz website.

I hope you enjoy.

LYRICS
DIXIE FRIED (1)

There's no way home from here
No turning back for me
That stranger living in fear
Now longs to set be free.

Looking for freedom's glare
I'm lost inside of me
My life is fleeing fast
Where should I run from here?

Wandering all around.
All right, but in my mind.
Let's walk down the golden brick road. (2)
But all in my dreams, just in my dreams.

I'm losing track of it all.
Oh, no. Where am I now?
Jim's blue bus is leaving town (3) 
And Lucy's in a rush, watch out. (4)

Just let your freak flag fly  (5)
Spaced out (6) and out of sight. (7)
Turn off your mind (8) and see
With kaleidoscope eyes. (9)

All marmalade skies (10) and soulflies
Are in my mind.
I'm floating down the stream of time (11)
But I don't know if I'm coming up or down. (12)

Just another trip in the wall. (13)
Oh no, I'm lost somehow.
Take your deep dive down the rabbit hole. (14)
And let's turn on, tune in and drop out. (15)

[Timothy Leary narration]

[Jimi Hendrix guitar solo]

Looking for freedom's glare
I'm lost inside of me
My life is fleeing fast
Where should I run from here?

Wandering all around.
All right, but in my mind.
Let's walk down the golden brick road.
But all in my dreams, just in my dreams.

I'm losing track of it all.
Oh, no. Where am I now?
Jim's blue bus is leaving town
And Lucy's in a rush, watch out.
